Macros!!!

Hmm... it's been a really long time since I last blogged. And yes, I did "shut down" my blog for awhile... I've edited what I wanted to.

Anyways, today has been a good day. =) But not initially... really. Haha! I wanted to go to the Botanical Gardens, thinking there'd be LOADS & LOADS of flower, and hence, insects... but NO-O-O! I walked from the Tanglin entrance ALL-LL the way to the Bukit Timah Exit where the Children's Garden is... guess how many photos I took in all?

55. F-i-f-t-y f-i-v-e. Fifty-five! And that includes flowers too ok...

Ok, nevermind. I just finished 1 battery only. So I decided to go to MacRitchie to look for more insects. With 2 batteries to go, I trudged into a previously unexplored (on my part la) area/trail of MacRitchie. Not knowing how long the trail would take, I went onwards optimistically. Wah, on the way, got alot of boys and girls running lor... with the occasional auntie & uncle as well... and quite alot of foreigners too!

As the day wore on, I got tired, and my water finished at like 2 or 3+... so I told myself, I'd go home at the next exit to any main road, or when my batteries run out, whichever came first. In the end, I found the exit but it was quite a distance from the main road, so I kept my camera on & took many more photos! Just nice when I got to the main road, the battery indicator started blinking red. So cool! Guess how many photos I got at the end?

368. Three hundred and sixty-eight... Yay!!!

Of course, there were a whole lot of repeats, and a whole lot of, in my opinion, unusable pictures... meaning out of focus. In the end, I only chose 37 photos for my portfolio. Haha! Lousy... only 1/10th usable pictures.

Anyways, GOD has been good... Weather report said that today would be the same as yesterday... thunderstorms. But I prayed for the rain to be held back today, and though the skies were cumulonimbus-y after the Botanic Gardens, not a drop of rain fell... well, at least, not where I have been. And thank GOD for all the insects and the photogenic opportunities! And for not letting me die of hunger or anything... AND for not getting a SINGLE mozzie bite! Dengue's dangerous y'know?

So yup! That's today... =)

*sigh*

Y'know when u told me about ur chance-meeting with her, and what she said & did & all... *sigh* I dunno if u could tell but I was on the verge of tears. I felt even worse for doing this to her... and the worse part is, I can't do anything to make anything better!

=((((

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Having said that, do you think I'm ready for another relationship? I'm not saying I don't want... I just feel that it's not fair to you to always be so affected so easily, y'know what I'm sayin'?

Of course, I have already been unfair to indulge in these emotions with you... haven't I?

I'm sorry. I really am.

I know words don't mean much, but what else can I do now?

~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I feel my wings have broken in your hands,
I feel the words unspoken inside,
And they pull you under.
And I will give you anything you want,
You are all I wanted.
All my dreams are fallin' down,
Crawlin' around and around and around...

Somebody save me,
Let your warm hands break right through it.
Somebody save me,
I don't care how you do it, just
Stay, stay,
C'mon, I've been waiting for you.

I see the world has folded in your heart,
I feel the waves crash down inside,
And they pull me under.
And I would give you anything you want,
You are all I wanted.
All my dreams have fallen down,
Crawling around and around and around...

I made this whole world shine for you...
Just stay, stay,
C'mon, I'm still waiting for you."

-Remy Zero: Save Me

Love me if you dare... 21:50
